The dendrites of the pontine neurons are not as hodophobic as those of the inferior olivary nucleus. |
The spathomele and other olivary probes were no doubt often used as small pestles. |
It consists of a long shaft with an olivary point at one end and a spatula at the other. |
In the medulla, note the elongated gray olivary nucleus, with its slit-like hilus, directed dorsomedially. |
The ventral medulla also houses another set of paired structures, the olivary bodies, which are located laterally on the pyramids. |
Electrophysiological experiments in animals have shown that some neurons of the accessory nucleus of the olivary complex respond to impulses from both ears. |
